Herb Quinoa

Monday, July 18, 2011

So this is my story... I had bought quinoa awhile ago and figuring the kids and the husband might find repugnance to the new grain on the dinner plate. I hid it waiting for a good opportunity. This was the night! I was making salmon and decided to try the quinoa on the side. Surprise, surprise, all the kids loved it and my middle son asked to have it again the following night. So we will be adding this into our regular rotation instead of rice. The kids thought it was like sticky rice and my husband became inquisitive with questions and interest. It reminds me of a mix between rice and couscous. So be bold be brave and give it a go. I found mine organic in the bulk section of the local super market and it was pretty inexpensive.
